Our K-12 team is proud to share our latest knowledge resource to help demystify the design and construction process for educational facilities. Future Forward K-12 Facilities: A Design Toolkit focuses on key project aspects such as getting started, spaces for innovative learning, flexible facilities, student and faculty wellness, best practices for safer schools, and building efficiency.
These booklets can be read as a series or used as a deeper dive into a single topic; we hope they will serve as a primer for those just getting started on a school construction project as well as inspiration for those who are highly experienced in the process.
Thriving communities are possible only through thriving schools. We wish you success with your next educational facilities design and construction project!
